About this listen
'Such an enjoyable read...full of delightful nuggets that you will want to impress your friends and family with.' PROF. JIM AL-KHALILI, NYT bestselling author of The World According to Physics
'This is a lovely, fascinating book. It blends history, geology, chemistry, philosophy and, of course, physics in a way that's delightful to read.' - ABIGAIL BEALL, author of The Art of Urban Astronomy
--------
Discover the secrets of one of the biggest puzzles in our history - Time.
As a subject, it has perplexed and fascinated generations of scientists, historians and more, and continues to spark the most intriguing questions being asked in science today. Can time be stopped? Is time travel possible? Does time even exist...?
In these ten bite-sized essays, Colin Stuart delves into these big questions and uncovers the most awe-inspiring and revealing things we should all know about time. Perfect for readers of Carlo Rovelli and anyone fascinated by space and the universe, this is a must-read for those short on time, but not curiosity.

Critic reviews
A gripping exploration of one of the most fundamental, but also perplexing aspects of existence.
This little book was full of delightful nuggets about the nature of time that you will want to impress your friends and family with...such an enjoyable read, I got through it in one sitting.
This is a lovely, fascinating book. It blends history, geology, chemistry, philosophy and, of course, physics in a way that's delightful to read
I’m no scientist. I’m very much a lay man who is fascinated by science. I love this book (and this series of books) because they cause me to think deeply in ways my non-scientific brain struggles with, but the information makes me wish I could do all this with ease. If you have a mild interest in science and want to try to get your head around stuff that would otherwise be being your reach, read or listen to these books. You must.
The mind-bogglingly complex made almost understandable
